"The care is top class and staff are wonderful"
"Thank you for the fantastic care you gave my dad. It was a comfort to know that during the long lockdowns he was in good hands and well cared for. You are all doing an amazing job."
"The level of loving care attended is testament to the calibre of your staff, all of whom were fantastic with Mum and exceptionally kind with us as a family also. You have a wonderful team and a fantastic facility, one which we knew Mum was safe in with you during the uncertainty of COVID and one which she felt loved and adored by your team."
All meals are cooked daily on site in the main kitchen. Daily menu choices are offered and the cooks provide meals for specific service users who require special diets.
